7:02 am
different classrooms based on income, based on color of skin. >> just minutes ago we learned the nation's jobless rate held steady in february at 8.3%. about 227,000 jobs were created last month. >> for 26 years kony has been kidnapping children into his rebel group. >> joseph kony is wanted by the international criminal courts. >> in less than a week it's become the most viral video ever. >> there have been questions raised about this group. >> we work outside of the traditional box of what you think about charity and nonprofit. >> search and rescue crews looking for an albuquerque woman who has been missing for nearly a month found her. >> a shooting at a psychiatric clinic in pittsburgh has left two people dead including the gunmen. >> all that. >> did you think that drugs would end up taking her? >> and all that matters. >> quarterback if peyton is available.
7:03 am
>> coming right at you right at our camera tower. are you all right? >> on "nbc 10 news today." >> i will not be making any comments. >> i will not be making any comments. >> oh, my god that hurt. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "nbc 10 news today." we begin with another positive jobs report from the labor department. >> it is the third month in a row with good news on the jobs front. rebecca jarvis is here with more on those numbers. >> good morning. i would characterize this as a solid report. 227,000 new jobs were added in the month of february. unemployment remains steady at 8.3%. what would make it a spectacular report? if we were seeing the kind of job growth of 350,000 new jobs, it's a long way down to the 5%, 6% unemployment rate that we are accustomed to dealing with in a more normalized economy. >> but what is the -- is there a specific trend here? sort of third time's a charm. three months in a row of over
7:04 am
200,000. >> that's where the 'tivity is here. the momentum is moving in the right direction. for the last three months, december, january, february the economy has added more than 200,000 jobs in every single month. where economists look at this as a positive is that it's actually a trend. this isn't just oh, this is a blip on our radar and all of a sudden we have addition of more than 200,000 jobs. this is something that appears to be gaining mow momentum into the spring and summer. >> it follows a flurry of good news. consumer confidence and some change in the manufacturing sector on the other? >> yeah. that actual change in the manufacturing sector is reflected in where the jobs have been added because manufacturing is one of the categories where we did see job growth in the month of february. the biggest category of job growth in the month of february was professional and business services. now of that category, one of the caveats there is that about 1/2 or a little more than 1/2 of those additions were created in temporary jobs. we need to see those become
7:05 am
full-time jobs for us to say, wow, this is a really great number. hospitality and leisure another category where jobs were added. that's also a category that we have seen a little bit of momentum in. >> you go. >> what do we have to see to see the unemployment numbers tick down. >> in order to see that you really need to see plus 250,000 jobs every month on a consecutive basis. the other factor that's triefg these, however, is whether or not people continue to look for jobs because you're counted as unemployed if you're searching for work. if you're not searching for work, if you drop out of the labor force by no longer searching for work, you're not counted in the numbers. that's why analysts become skeptical. they say people are dropping out. they're not necessarily getting new jobs. >> that's one of the biggest concerns. >> there are millions of americans in that category as well as millions of americans in the category of long-term unemployed. those who have been unemployed for 27 plus months. i should also point out the fact
7:06 am
that government jobs are one of the areas that has stabilized. >> good news for people looking for work and good news for the president. >> absolutely. very good point, charlie. >> thank you, rebecca. the latest now on iran's nuclear saga. western officials say iran may be trying to destroy evidence at one of its alleged nuclear facilities. that is based on recent satellite images. meantime, in a "60 minutes" interview, the former head of israel's ma sad intelligence agency tells his country's leader not to attack iran. he calls it the stupidist idea he's ever heard. he told correspondent lesley stahl, its abetter to wait for the u.s. >> he argues that a preemptive israeli strike this year would be reckless and irresponsible. the obama administration agrees that there's time to wait. >> already there's too much loose talk of war.
7:07 am
>> i have listened very carefully to what president obama said. he said openly the military option is on the table and he is not going to let iran become a nuclear state. >> so let me try to sum up what i think you're trying to say. you're saying why should we do it. if we wait and they get the bomb the americans will do it. >> it's not an israeli problem, it's an international problem. >> wait and let us do it? >> somebody will do it. the americans will do it. >> joining us now, lesley stahl. good morning. >> good morning. >> tell us the significance of this coming from this man. why is he so relevant to the question? >> well, he was running the massad through most of the period of the iranian nuclear development. we assume he was seeing intelligence reports. his actual mission was to prevent this nuclear bomb from ever coming to fruition.
7:08 am
that was his mainly singular assignment for his eight years running massad. we assume he knows a lot. we know he knows a lot. he's also a hero in israel. he's a war hero. not a war hero but an army hero. so he's greatly respected in the country. >> and what is he most concerned about? >> he's most concerned about a retaliation more than anything else. he feels that if israel launches an attack, the bombardment will devastate the country. if the united states launches the attack, they get hit whatever happens, but it won't be as bad. it's not that he wouldn't like to see these facilities destroyed, but he says flat out that they can't be destroyed by a military attack, only delayed. and he actually talked to us about using humans somehow to get in there somehow. >> how much push back is there from the prime minister and even
7:09 am
those who suggested the prime minister had fired him and perhaps he was very upset about that? >> there is some suggestion that he is speaking out because he has political ambitions himself. i don't know if that's true. and that netanyahu didn't renew his tenure at the massad, but i -- you can tell that he deeply feels that an attack soon sometime this year, which is really what the drum beat is all about, would really be a mistake. it's sincere. >> this is a fascinating piece. >> thank you. >> lesli, thanks. you can see the entire report sunday night on "60 minutes" right here on cbs. this morning the republican presidential contenders are focusing on primaries in mississippi and alabama. it is a chance for them to make up ground on front-runner mitt romney. >> nancy cord disis covering the campaign in jackson, mississi i mississippi. >> reporter: good morning
7:10 am
charlie, erica, our viewers in the west. mitt romney essentially admitted yesterday that the deep south is not exactly his home turf but this is where the delegates are right now with primaries coming up in mississippi, alabama, louisiana so he's come a courting. >> reporter: in passagula, mississippi, he declared himself a southerner. >> i'm learning to say y'all. i like grits. strange things are happening to me. >> reporter: but earlier in the day in a birmingham, alabama, radio interview he acknowledged the south is not his natural territory. >> i realize it's a bit of an away game, but i also think we're going to pick up some support. >> romney was pummelled in the southern primaries four years ago. former arkansas governor mike huckabee swept most of the states. >> you have to be able to speak southern and act southern to understand the south. there is nothing southern about mitt romney. he truly is massachusetts and michigan with a dash of utah.
7:11 am
>> reporter: stumping in tupalo, mississippi, newt gingrich argued he's the native son after winning his home state of georgia on super tuesday. >> i believe with your help on tuesday when we win here and we win in alabama we'll be back. >> reporter: former senator rick santorum could make inroads with the sizeable evangelical population here just as he did on super tuesday. in the seven states where all the candidates were on the ballot tuesday, 37% of evangelicals went for santorum followed by 30% for gingrich and 26% for romney. >> if we can finish first and second here in -- first and second in mississippi and alabama on tuesday, i think that'll be a big win for us and hopefully get this race down to two candidates. >> reporter: santorum has repeatedly hinted that he'd love for gingrich to get out of the race so gingrich has shown no inclination to do so. if all three top contenders do remain in the running, it's
7:12 am
difficult to see how any of them can get the number of delegates they need to clinch the nomination and that increases the chances of a brokered convention. nancy, thank you. a former los angeles police detective will be sentenced in may for a brutal murder 26 years ago. a jury convicted stephanie lazarius of shooting and beating her former lover's wife in 1986. dna evidence from a bite mark led the police to open a cold case. she faces 25 to life. amazing story of kony 2012. that online video exposing african warlord and his army of children has been viewed by more than 60 million times since monday. >> national correspondent ben tracy is in los angeles with the story of how this eye opening video has spread so far so fast. ben, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, and good morning to our viewers here in the west. until this week few people had heard of joseph kony or the tens of thousands of children he's
7:13 am
accused of kidnapping. then a nonprofit posted a video online and it spread like wild fire thanks to the power of social media and celebrity. >> thank you for believing in the story. >> reporter: filmmaker jason russell posted a thank you video online on thursday. >> your response. your forwarding abilities has been huge. >> reporter: he seems surprised that his 30-minute film about a ugandan warlord has become the most successful viral video ever. >> its only purpose is to stop the rebel group, the lra, and their leader, joseph koyn rsh he's accused of kidnapping up to 30,000 children in the past 26 years, mainly in uganda. >> turning the girls into sex slaves and the boys into child soldiers. >> reporter: the invisible children organization produced the film and a shrewd strategy to promote it. they posted it on youtube on monday and asked viewers to message 20 hand picked celebrities to tell them to spread the word.
7:14 am
it worked. on tuesday at 9:53 a.m. oprah tweeted about it. then at 10:36 justin bieber mentioned it. sing jerry than tweeted that night. on wednesday it was shawn combs and ryan seacrest. by thursday the video had been watched 50 million times, mostly by teenagers. >> when a celebrity has many millions of followers on twitter and says that they care a lot about a video, people are going to watch it. >> reporter: including these high school students in california who have formed a kony 2012 club to raise awareness. >> for us to finally say we did something before our teachers told us to is awesome. >> i just want everyone to open up their eyes and see what's going on here, that we're a generation eager for change. >> reporter: the film is part of invisible children's campaign to rachet up pressure to find and arrest him by the end of 2012. the group has been criticized for how much it spends on marketing instead of direct aid to africa. last year it took in $13.8 million and spent 8.9 million.
7:15 am
just 3.3 million went to programs in central africa. >> we've never pretended that all the money goes to the ground because we don't believe that that's the best use. the best use is spreading the word and then doing the highest impact programs possible on the ground. >> reporter: and if raising awareness of kony's alleged crimes was the intention, they certainly accomplished that. even the white house press secretary mentioned this yesterday. we did, however, speak to a journalist in uganda and she wonders what, if any, lasting impact all of this will have. her fear, of course, is that by next week this will be a passing fad and americans will be on to something else. >> ben, thank you very much. with us, we have someone from invisible children. >> we're pleased to have you. how do you respond to the concerns of that person who said i worry where they will be a week from now? >> well, we're just excited that it's very evident that this
7:16 am
movie -- our dream for this movie was to get 500,000 views in the year 2013. so the fact that it took off like it did only shows that young people specifically are so hungry for someone to voice their world view, which is we're all equal. we're all human beings and there's no excuse that a kid on the other side of the world can be tortured and kidnapped and not us. so i think that shows an endemic change in the way people see themselves. so it's not going anywhere. it's really a change. >> shouldn't your mission and shouldn't your goal be to make sure it changes something for the children there? not how many people see it. >> absolutely. that's the point. i mean, our goals are twofold. our goals are to prove the universal through the specific. so the specific example is stopping the lra and rehabilitating the region that he's terrorized for 26 years which is a region the size of california. there's hundreds of thousands of people that have been impacted
7:17 am
by his brutality and we've worked with local partners. we're very strategic with our programs on the ground. our other key goal is to change the mindset of western young people to see themselves as global citizens. that's equal in part to waking up the empowerment of young people around this world that they can do something profoundly good with their life. >> jed did i dye a, do you know one of the criticisms is about one of those projects on the ground that you referenced. what are the specific programs on the ground that are getting only about 30% of the money that you're bringing in? how are you using those funds to actually find this man? >> well, the finding of kony is really used primarily through our advocacy because we talk with the state department, the u.s. government as well as governments all around the world. they're the ones pursuing the lra. obviously we don't have the capability for that. we have kids around the world who have raised money to build what we call an early warning
7:18 am
radio network. in congo, central african republ republic, there's no communication there. we've built radio towers so the villages can kmun be any kate so they can protejt each other from lra attack. it goes to rehabilitate northern uganda which lived through this for 18 years before the lra moved into congo. what we do there is put kids in school, rebuild the schools, give these kids mentors because they've lost family members to the war, we give women formerly abducted women who have rebel babies, we give them jobs as seam stresses. we teach adults how to read because the truth is, if you want sustainable peace, if you don't want to see another warlord rise up, these people have to have a bright economic future. we want a holistic approach to really rehabilitating the region to create lasting peace. thank you so much. >> absolutely. so happy to be here. it is now time to show you some of this morning's headlines from around the globe.
7:19 am

narrow. >> reporter: good morning to you viewers in the west. when prince harry landed here in rio a couple of hours ago he officially changed his role from representing the queen and celebrating her 60 years on the crown to representing the british government and working as a sort of trade ambassador. it's likely he'll be seen quite differently this week than just a week ago. >> reporter: only a prince could pull off a week like this. >> if i may just for a moment, i would like to take this opportunity to pay a personal tribute to my grandmother. >> reporter: his three-nation tribute at times seemed as much about the queen as it did prince harry himself. showcasing both the prince's stamina and range. from state dinners to sporting events. the man who danced to bob marley on wednesday in jamaica was somber the following day as news
7:32 am
broke that six british troops had been killed in afghanistan. he chose to watch jamaican soldiers repel rather than joining in, a shift in schedule in show of respect. the prince who spent 77 days in afghanistan claims he had pretty stunning aim and even fired off a joke at the expense of reporters. >> the camera, want to stand at the other end? >> this newly qualified apache helicopter pilot went to a peace full setting, montego bay. when he started this journey last friday in belise, the media debated where he might party. >> in just a week he's turned the commentary toward his diplomatic ability. aided perhaps by a little brotherly advice from another prince. cbs news learned that the two brothers have chatted by phone and texted throughout the trip as prince william helped with

7:34 am
effect. >> reporter: now the prince does share this country's love of sport, and as you might imagine, that figures quite prominently in his agenda here. >> so if he's there in part to support the olympics coming to london, do we expect to see him playing in his sports? >> reporter: we will, charlie, on the beaches of copacabana. he will be playing beach volleyball. you can see a beautiful day. maybe we'll check that out. >> seth, thank you very much. rough gig again, huh? >> remarkable effort is underway in japan. it's saving memories that were lost in the earthquake and tsunami by bringing family photographs back to life. that story is next. you're watching "nbc 10 news today." ,,,,

hill. last summer "48 hours mystery" reported on an unsolved murder case in chicago. two witnesses came forward for the first time after watching that broadcast. >> they provided new testimony that allowed prosecutors to finally charge a suspected serial killer. >> reporter: the murder happened here in the middle of the night. someone jumped out of the kbubus and stabbed 18-year-old tricia pacaccio to death. >> i was the one who found her. i was going around to my van. i just happened to see two little tennis shoes sticking up by the side door. when i saw it was her, i dropped the coffee cup. i died. right then and there. >> tricia was an amazing girl. probably the most energetic and happy people i've ever seen. >> everybody was beside
8:02 am
themselves. like, who and why would anybody do something like this? >> a friend of the victim's two brothers was our immediate suspect. he was a very powerful young man. >> reporter: hollywood hills, 2001. a 22-year-old believed to be after ashton kutcher's girlfriend is stabbed to death. >> i knew they were going to be hanging out, going to a grammy party. >> so it was grammy night. >> yeah. >> he was just picking her up to take her. >> reporter: kutcher arrived around 10:45 that night. ashley never answered her door. >> the body of 22-year-old ashley loren elleren was found early thursday morning. police say the stabbing happened wednesday night. >> the injuries she suffered were horrific. >> reporter: 2005, a 32-year-old woman is stabbed in her home. >> there were multiple stab wounds. not just a couple. tricia greatly resembled the
8:03 am
other victims here in california. they were all young, attractive, female. >> i feel between what we know today between illinois and california, michael is a suspect. >> late yesterday, we filed a criminal complaint against michael. >> for me, the witnesses coming forward to "48 hours" after the show was the first step. >> he will be brought back here to illinois. we're going to continue with this case. it'll be a while before that happens. >> it doesn't take away the pain, but there is some sense of relief. not closure yet. it's a start. that's all it is. it's a start. >> maureen joins us live from chicago. hello to you. >> good morning. >> hey, what made you so interested in this case after 18 years, and what took the witnesses so long to come forward? >> i think on a personal level, gayle, this is a story that started in chicago. myself and the producer who
8:04 am
worked on this piece, we are also from chicago. it was an opportunity to perhaps help a family. the reason it took the witnesses so long to come forward is that the gentleman who actually contacted me after the show first aired last spring said he was unaware that the man was wanted as a suspect in this case. so it took a while for them to come forward. as soon as he saw the show, he contacted me and we put them in touch with the proper authorities to bring him in before a grand jury. >> that's got to be so gratifying for you. >> it is, especially because this family has been waiting so long. they've had a lot of difficulty, a difficult relationship with some of the authorities here. it's not over for them yet, but this is a family. murder is tragic to begin with. i think that their treatment and things that happened to them over the last 18 years made it more difficult. >> maureen, he's been charged with killing three women, attacking a fourth. is there any reason to believe,
8:05 am
do authorities believe there could be anymore victims? >> absolutely, erica. they do believe that there could be as many as ten to 14 other victims across the country and in mexico because he was married to a mexican woman for a while. >> what made him a suspect originally? >> well, he was actually what we now probably call a person of interest back then because he was part of the group of friends in the neighborhood, and he had been seen in the area. but he did a very good job of deflecting interest on himself and actually transferring over to another good friend of his who then became a suspect for police for a long time. they kind of forgot about him for a while. >> some friend. mauree

everything this morning from the best deals to the right coverage, which is always my question. good morning. >> good morning. >> you're going to kick us off with the best day to rent a car which is saturday morning. >> that's the secret. that's the one day they want to rent a car. they book the car and don't show up. what you do is you get the lowest rate car you can get, the lowest rate car and have a good chance of upgrade or better deal. just show up. >> if you don't show up, don't you have to leave your credit card? >> most don't have a cancellation. if people don't show up, they don't show up. >> my big question is insurance. i used to always -- didn't you? i used to get the insurance. >> i would be so nervous. >> it's not insurance. let's start with what it's not. it's not insurance. it's a waiver that relieves you of liability. however, chances are that your own car insurance lrs covers you. companies make so much money on insurance, they make more money from renting the car. you have to check with your own pol stoi make sure you're covered and what kind of insurance to get. they want to sell you just the
8:20 am
collision and comprehensive and personal effects. >> my dad said to me to use a specific car because certain credit cards cover you as well. >> certain credit cards. a lot of them are marketed, if you rent the car using that credit card, you're covered. not necessarily. it's secondary insurance. the only time that kicks in is once you've exhausted the total liability limits of your primary insurance. if you don't have primary insurance, you don't have insurance. double-check to make sure they're selling you primary insurance. >> bottom line, am i getting it or not? >> what you do is, you don't necessarily have to get it at the counter if you're covered by your own policy. if you have a credit card, check to see if it's primary insurance. if not, you might want to get it. >> okay. >> was that clear for you? >> i got it. >> see, it's good when you speak clearly, peter. >> and slowly. >> we're actually pretty quick but i didn't get that one. what about the charges for additional drivers? >> you have to list every additional driver or they're not
8:21 am
covered under the n insurance if it's a domestic partner or spouse, chances are they're covered without additional charge. but the bottom line is you have to list them. if you don't, you're driving essentially an uninsured vehicle. >> don't do that. >> the best way to get the best deal. is it online, is it on the phone? >> it's on the phone. because you want to talk to the individual franchisee at the location where you want to rent. you don't necessarily want to rent the airport. in some cases it's cheaper to take a cab into town and rent locally. they're putting every imaginable surcharge. they have to pay high rental cars because of the location of the airport. >> when you say talk to the actual people, when you call 911 -- 411 to get the number, you get the 800 number. it's hard to get the local number. >> actually, no. there are a lot that advertise in newspapers, they advertise -- you find that local number. because they're the best judge of their own inventory. otherwise, you're an 800 number that gives you the rates.
8:22 am
>> they have no idea. >> to protect yourself against additional charges. i didn't do that. >> bring yourself a camera, with a time and date code on it. walk around that car before you leave the lot and photograph every angle of the car. it takes three minutes. >> do you really do that? >> i do. >> when you return a car -- >> neither have i. >> that's why i'm here. >> okay. >> had you do that, it's not just your word against yours. you have evidence with a time and date stamp. i didn't create that scratch on the fender, i didn't do the ding on the windshield. the repair bills on the cars can be enormous. >> if you can, you can't always do this, return a car in south bend at ak in the morning. if you can, make sure a person checks your car in. >> even if you don't, you have the photographic evidence later on. >> i'm a member of the zip car. do you like those that you rent on an hourly basis? >> why not? it's a great concept. >> i will keep my membership then. >> thank you, peter.

8:32 am
ask the british government for their help to introduce the passion sport of fly fishing into the desert of his country. he feels he can bring peace and prosperity to his people. it's an odd idea. >> do you love fly fishing? >> i didn't know much about fly fishing. i had to learn to fly fish for the movie. >> isn't it popular in your country? >> very much so. like golf. >> but your character, you play this buttoned-up guy. what's so great is to see the transformation without giving it away. >> i think as an actor, you're always looking for a part where your character was a different person than when you start the film. in this case, it's a really strong arc. he's very repressed, socially awkward, sexually non-existent. by the end of the film, he's in a different place. >> what's always made it seem difficult for me is when you shoot films out of context. you shoot the beginning in the middle and the middle in the
8:33 am
beginning. how do you keep that arc that you have created for your character? >> well, you have to give a great deal of thought beforehand. then it's all on -- if you play the scene on the page, you know, it's all in the writing. you have to bear in mind -- in the next case, we were shooting out of sequence. i have to keep reminding myself, okay, where am i now? how open or closed is fred at this point? >> i so love your accent. i do. i could listen to you speak all day. when you sat down, you said people in this country come up to you -- tell everybody what you just told us. >> no, no. i get it a lot. are you scottish? i'm scottish too. oh, yeah. >> even though they're not, or they are? >> i think they mean their ancestry. >> in the movie, you didn't want to use your accent. >> no. >> because? >> well, because he's so repressed and uncomfortable and like totally middle-aged before
8:34 am
his time, really. there's an accent called morning side. it's a very sort of tone accent. it's an uncomfortable kind of accent. it suited him better than my own. >> you know what i like about this guy other than he's scottish? there is also this. he likes motorcycles and loves dogs. and he puts them together. he has a side car. >> yeah, i do. i've always ridden bikes, since i was like 19. it's my favorite way to get around. then i got little sid. there he is. i got sid just after the finished the film "beginners." he's a little rescue dog. i like to knock about with him everywhere. i suddenly realized i couldn't do that on my motorcycle, so i bought a side car. >> charlie, you like motorcycles too? >> i do. >> wow. okay. >> just one.
8:35 am
i love the word knock about too. >> you know what i like about your story? you dropped out of school when you were 16. now you're a movie star, very successful and very good at what you do. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. do you ever pinch yourself to say, gosh, look at my job, i love what i do. do you ever have those moments? >> i do. when you talk about dropping out of school, i mean, i was lucky that my parents let -- they suggested that i leave school because all i ever wanted to do was be an actor. i wasn't really happy at school. i wasn't learning stuff that would help me. they knew that. i left. a week after i left school at 16, i was working in a theater backstage as one of the stage crew. i started learning about what i wanted to do then. so i've never considered it dropping out as much as -- >> leaving for your passion. >> starting my education in acting. >> i get it. >> i've been very lucky.
8:36 am
i've worked with some of the world's greatest directors and amazing actors. i love it. >> and have a production company with jude law still? >> no, not for a very long time. >> but she would like for you to record it. >> we didn't really produce too much. >> ewan mcgregor, thank you. >> "salomon fishing in the yemen" opens in theaters today. >> i love the movie. highly, highly recommend. as march madness gets closer, we're looking back on duke's back-to-back championships. i wonder if charlie remembers that. >> i love that day. that. >> i anyone who grows things for a living will tell ya...

>> it wasn't like we all always got along, but we can look back 20 years later and say, we did good. we were really good. >> really, really, really good. 20 years ago, duke university was number one in college basketball two years in a row. that championship era is celebrated in a new documentary "duke '91 and 'the -- 91 back to back." >> two of the producers are here with us. grant and christian, good to see you. i will never forget the moment when you turned around at half court almost, you know, and hit that shot that beat kentucky. grant, did you think that ball was going in? >> well, when christian caught it, i knew it was going in. people don't realize, he hadn't missed a shot that whole game. he had 30 points. he was 9 for 9 from the free throw line, 10 for 10 from the field. i just wanted to make sure i
8:40 am
could deliver it. once he got it, he took a dribble. he obviously knew what he was doing. the fact that 20 years later we still talk about that shot and that play as one of the best in history. >> not only that, it's considered one of the greatest college sports games ever, if not the greatest. >> what i love when i look at that video, guys, is the euphoria and the thrill and the joy, the pure joy you see on the court. you said, grant, that nothing really sets in your life. i know you have a wife and children. i understand marriage and love, but i want you to talk about that feeling. you too, christian. i love when i see guys that happy and what that moment meant to you both. >> we both have gone on. we played professionally and had long careers and so on. you know, for me personally, that time, that team, those years, that sense of fraternity, that brotherhood, that camaraderie, that sense of
8:41 am
family -- i mean, to me, that's what i think of. obviously, you see the footage and the highlights. i think of the times as a team we spent together, the times going to dinner, training. >> it forever bond you. the first thing grant said when he looked at the picture was, oh, god, look at the haircut. nobody is noticing but you, mr. hill. what did you say about the haircut, christian? >> it's a kid at play haircut. >> people don't know what that is now. >> here's what's interesting. for all the teamwork and for all they did, there were conflicts. i mean, there were tensions between some of the players. it's never perfect, right? >> well, it might be perfect if you're around a team that's not going to win any championships and you're going to have a .500 record. we were trying to do something special at duke, trying to get to the next level. well, how do you get to the next
8:42 am
level? you be very demanding on each other. coach k was extremely demanding on us as a coach. he encouraged us to hold each other accountable. there were times when i maybe took it to an uncomfortable level. >> what would be one of those times, christian? >> just any time bobby and i happened to cross paths. >> you and bobby hurley. >> yes. >> it's said you would even sign your name across his face. >> i would give him a hard time, tease him constantly. >> do you regret that, christian? do you think, i was too tough? i saw something with seth davis from cbs sports who said you can't really have a great team without conflict. i never really thought about it until he said that. do you regret that maybe you'd been too tough? >> i don't regret it in terms of what happened on the basketball court because we succeeded at a high level. it was all worth it in terms of that. i had to apologize and let him
8:43 am
